In serious contesting would a FT-2000 or 2000D be considered as a viable

quits.
Lots of FT2000 and FT1000 series radios have been sold or are for sale by contesters. Their owners replaced them with K3s. The primary reason is that the K3 is almost 20dB better in terms of front end performance, and generates 10-20 dB less trash. The Orion II is probably the closest competitor.
